The History of ID&T
The ID&T label has been around for many many years now, since 1992 at least, releasing hardcore stuff in the beginning, and now trance/hardtrance.
They also organize the biggest raves in Holland (Trance Energy, Innercity, Sensation, Mysteryland etc...)
I think my thread is directed towards dutch TAs for that reason
Could someone tell me the whole history of ID-T ? How did it get started ? How did they impose the whole hardcore scene in Holland and Europe ?
What amazes me the most is how they suddenly changed their style, from hardcore and happy hardcore till 1997/98 and then very uplifting trance; that was around that time that Tiesto and Corsten became big (more like 98/99 though)
What I can't understand is how the majority of dutch ravers and clubbers swtiched from hardcore to trance like all of a sudden, following ID-T's "reconversion".
Was that ID-T's fault, or were dutch people tired of hardcore music ?
Also, many of the current biggest dutch DJs once were hardcore DJs, I got that old Bonzai Jumps vinyl from '95 the other day, DJ Yves - The Main Man, and what did i see on it !!?? That it was co-produced by Tijs Verwerst...aka DJ Tiesto !
That was a shock, hard to believe Tiesto produced awesome hardcore/happy hardcore tunes back in '95 (how old was he back then ???) and a couple of years later became Holland's trance "god".
I talked about it on the TA Hub chat with Biohasard, who also told me that Ferry Corsten used to produce hardcore tracks as well ! (under the Tellurian alias, which was pretty famous back in 94-96). As well as DJ Astrid and Michael de Hey !
That too, was a shock ! 
So please, someone tell me what's the whole deal, how is it possible that DJs can change their style that radically and what role played ID-T in the whole thing.
I find it kinda worrysome for trance in general, who can be considered just as a big hype, and may go down hill pretty soon
Seems like ID-T and Holland rule the techno world..or what..??? 
Waiting for your kind answers
